Local Sustainable Food Procurement in Municipalities and the Broader Public Sector
The toolkit,Local Sustainable Food Procurement in Municipalities and the Broader Public Sector, is geared towards Ontario municipalities and broader public sector institutions looking to initiate sustainable procurement policies and programs in their regions. By providing examples of policy language and analyzing perceived barriers to local sustainable food procurement (specifically policy and trade agreements), this toolkit equips good food advocates, industry stakeholders, and civil servants with facts and case studies to demonstrate the potential for effective, compliant procurement practices that invest in local sustainable food.
